All I wanna know is where has Devon Monk been hiding all this time? I love her writing style which is gritty, dark, fast paced and sarcastic. I was hooked after reading Magic to the Bone. Rarely does a follow up book even come close to being as good as the first, but in Magic in the Blood, Devon Monk delivers. I love the main character Allie and all her complicated life. I love the unique magic element that is incorporated in these books. Devon Monk creates a genre all her own. These books are a must read. I cannot wait for Magic in the Shadows, which comes out November 3, 2009. I never pre-order but I must admit I am considering it. All the cover art is dark yet attractive. My only complaint is that Devon needs to write faster!!
Synopsis (from barnesandnoble.com): Working as a Hound—tracing illegal spells back to their casters—has taken its toll on Allison Beckstrom. But even though magic has given her migraines and stolen her recent memory, Allie isn't about to quit. Then the police's magic enforcement division asks her to consult on a missing persons case. But what seems to be a straightforward job turns out to be anything but, as Allie finds herself drawn into the underworld of criminals, ghosts, and blood magic.
Brilliant.
